It will be Xfce4, since Mate is somehow too big. Later on, we may still want to have a respin installer and/or liveCD with Mate default and anyway Mate is simple to apt-get install. However the default DE will be Xfce4 and we are also contributing to its code in order to keep it away from systemd lockin (thanks Dima!) https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11574 Many VUAs love Xfce4 and its team is really a good example of talented open source developers with good concerns about usability, compatibility and resource consumption. we may want to backport a newer package ourselves with a more actual 4.12 (volunteers welcome). ciao _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
